Description:
The text for Tschitta Saltunza was written Swiss poet Arnold Spescha and paints the picture of a butterfly’s flight in the Romansh language, spoken by people in the Swiss canton of Grisons. Composer Mårten Jansson uses word-painting to express the joyful dance and solemn wonderment of the colorful poem. An English singing translation is also included (by Charles Anthony Silvestri). For advanced choirs.
